Product details
Overview
LM224ADT from STMicroelectronics is a quad low-power operational amplifier with rail-to-rail output swing, designed for single-supply (3–30 V) and dual-supply (±1.5–±15 V) operation in industrial signal conditioning, sensor interfacing, and power supply monitoring. It delivers 1.3 MHz gain bandwidth, 100 dB large-signal voltage gain, and 3 mV max input offset voltage at 25 °C, enabling precision DC amplification in battery-powered and 24 V industrial systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM224ADT datasheet, LM224ADT pinout, LM224ADT application, or LM224ADT equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed 3 mV Vio (A-grade), 800 V HBM ESD rating, –40 °C to +105 °C operating range, and compatibility with SO14/TSSOP14/QFN16 packages - critical for thermal management, board space constraints, and automotive-adjacent industrial designs.
Technical Context
The LM224ADT integrates four independent high-gain op-amps with internal frequency compensation, supporting unity-gain-stable operation across its full supply range. Its input stage includes PNP transistors enabling ground-sensing common-mode input (0 V to VCC – 1.5 V), while the output stage provides rail-to-rail sourcing/sinking capability up to ±40 mA per channel.
It features low quiescent current (375 µA/amplifier typ.), low input bias current (20 nA typ.), and robust absolute maximum ratings: ±16 V dual supply or 32 V single supply, with infinite output short-circuit duration below 15 V supply - making it suitable for fault-tolerant analog front-ends in programmable logic controllers and motor drive feedback circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Gain Bandwidth Product | 1.3 MHz - supports stable closed-loop gain up to ~100× at 10 kHz for sensor signal amplification without phase margin loss. |
| Input Offset Voltage (25 °C) | 3 mV max - enables accurate DC-coupled amplification of mV-level thermocouple or bridge outputs without trimming. |
| Supply Voltage Range | Single: 3–30 V; Dual: ±1.5–±15 V - interoperable with 3.3 V microcontrollers, 5 V logic, and 24 V industrial rails. |
| Input Common-Mode Range | 0 V to VCC – 1.5 V - allows direct sensing of ground-referenced signals (e.g., current shunt, RTD bridges) without level-shifting. |
| Output Current (sourcing/sinking) | ±40 mA typical - drives 100 Ω loads directly or interfaces with ADC reference buffers and LED indicators. |
| ESD Rating (HBM) | 800 V - exceeds IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 requirements for industrial control panel interfaces. |
| Operating Temperature | –40 °C to +105 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive auxiliary modules and factory-floor PLC I/O cards. |
Pinout & Package
LM224ADT is available in SO14 package (JEDEC MS-012), with exposed pad not present. Pin functions are standardized across all quad op-amp variants in the LM224x family.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Inverting input of Amp A | Accepts differential input signal; referenced to non-inverting input (Pin 2) for inverting amplifier configuration. |
| 2 | Non-inverting input of Amp A | Used for non-inverting gain stages or as reference node in comparator applications with hysteresis. |
| 3 | Output of Amp A | Delivers amplified signal; capable of sourcing/sinking ≥40 mA into resistive loads. |
| 4 | VCC– (negative supply / GND) | Common return for all four amplifiers; must be low-impedance to minimize crosstalk and noise coupling. |
| 5 | Inverting input of Amp B | Independent input path; electrically isolated from Amp A inputs except via shared supply rails. |
| 6 | Non-inverting input of Amp B | Enables dual-channel instrumentation or differential pair configurations without external buffering. |
| 7 | Output of Amp B | Provides second independent output; channel separation >120 dB at 1 kHz ensures minimal inter-channel interference. |
| 8 | VCC+ (positive supply) | Power rail for all amplifiers; decoupling capacitor (100 nF) required within 1 cm for stability at high frequencies. |
| 9 | Inverting input of Amp C | Third channel input; layout symmetry with Pins 1/5/9 reduces PCB trace length mismatch in multi-stage filters. |
| 10 | Non-inverting input of Amp C | Supports cascaded gain stages where each op-amp handles one functional block (e.g., filter → gain → clamp). |
| 11 | Output of Amp C | Third output; usable for redundant monitoring or parallel processing of identical sensor signals. |
| 12 | Inverting input of Amp D | Final channel input; enables 4-channel simultaneous acquisition in data loggers or multi-zone temperature controllers. |
| 13 | Non-inverting input of Amp D | Allows independent reference setting per channel - e.g., different offset voltages for calibrated sensor offsets. |
| 14 | Output of Amp D | Fourth output; supports active filtering, level translation, or driving multiple ADC inputs with matched timing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Wide supply range (3–30 V single) | Eliminates need for dedicated LDOs in mixed-voltage systems - powers directly from 12 V or 24 V industrial rails. |
| Input common-mode range includes ground | Enables direct connection to 0 V-referenced sensors (e.g., strain gauges, current shunts) without external bias networks. |
| Low input offset voltage (3 mV max) | Reduces calibration overhead in 12-bit ADC systems - contributes <0.3% full-scale error at 1 V output span. |
| Low supply current (375 µA/amplifier) | Permits 4-channel analog signal conditioning in battery-operated devices with <1.5 mA total quiescent draw. |
| High ESD immunity (800 V HBM) | Withstands repeated handling and field wiring events in unshielded industrial enclosures without protection diodes. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad operational amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TSB572IDT | 36 V supply, 0.5 mV Vio (typ), 1.8 MHz GBP, 1.1 mA/quiescent current | Higher precision, wider supply, but higher power - suited for 16-bit ADC front-ends requiring <0.05% linearity | Select when Vio < 1 mV and supply > 30 V are mandatory; avoid if <1.5 mA total supply budget is constrained. |
| LM2902WDT | Automotive AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40 °C to +125 °C), 7 mV Vio (max), 300 µA/amplifier | Extended temperature and qualification for under-hood use, but looser offset spec than LM224ADT | Choose for production automotive ECUs requiring formal qualification; LM224ADT preferred for cost-sensitive industrial designs needing tighter Vio. |
Compared with TSB572IDT, LM224ADT trades bandwidth and offset precision for lower power and cost; versus LM2902WDT, it offers superior DC accuracy at the expense of automotive qualification - making it optimal for industrial control where 3 mV Vio and 800 V ESD define the performance boundary.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of LM224ADT per amplifier?
Each amplifier in the LM224ADT can source or sink up to 40 mA continuously under typical conditions (VCC = 15 V, Tamb = 25 °C), with output voltage swing limited to within 1.5 V of either rail. Short-circuit duration is rated as infinite below 15 V supply, but simultaneous short-circuits on all four channels may cause thermal shutdown due to cumulative power dissipation exceeding 400 mW in SO14 package.
Does LM224ADT support true rail-to-rail input operation?
No - LM224ADT features input common-mode voltage range from 0 V to VCC – 1.5 V, meaning it accepts signals down to ground but cannot handle inputs within 1.5 V of the positive rail. However, its output is rail-to-rail, swinging within ~20 mV of VCC+ and VCC– under light load, enabling full utilization of ADC reference ranges in single-supply systems.
How does the LM224ADT differ from standard LM224DT in terms of electrical performance?
LM224ADT specifies tighter input offset voltage (3 mV max vs. 5 mV max for LM224DT), higher ESD rating (800 V HBM vs. 250 V), and same –40 °C to +105 °C temperature grade. Both share identical pinout, package options, and core specifications like gain bandwidth and supply current - making LM224ADT a drop-in upgrade where improved DC accuracy and robustness are required.
Can LM224ADT operate from a 3.3 V single supply?
Yes - LM224ADT is fully specified down to 3 V single supply, with guaranteed operation across its entire temperature range. At 3.3 V, it maintains 1.3 MHz GBP, 100 dB open-loop gain, and output swing from ~50 mV above GND to ~3.25 V, supporting interface with 3.3 V microcontrollers and low-voltage ADCs without level-shifting circuitry.
